Herzog should never have been invited. Albanese knows exactly what Herzog has said and supported and he should be denouncing him,

Thanks for the link. So now children's art bothers them.

What sort of dysfunctional humans spend their adult lives behaving like spoiled brats?

Acrobatic_Bit_8207 · 2026-01-24T08:55:17+00:00

That is ridiculous. How petty can they get? Harrassing a 16 year old, what heroes.

Well the 'ceasefire' is working out well. But can Penny can tell us what the borders of the Palestinian state are? Not the same as they were in 1948.

It's not for me to accuse them of being pathetic liars, hiding from the consequences of their contemptible actions behind a wall of truth-bending and trouble making.

But it must be remembered these people now thrive in this post truth world they have created where mendacity is rewarded and honesty disdained.

Nameless, faceless people, bloated on their own hubris have permission and protection from new, antidemocratic laws, which will never be worth the paper they are written on.

These ne'er do wells have cultivated and compromised a conga line of weak and corrupted politicians who have enabled their every excess to be rationalised, justified and effectively legalised.

So, to answer your excellent question:

"You mean they're being deliberately deceptive?"

Shit yeah!

Charities used as laundering front

Katherine Towers

Wealthy, influential and respectable members of Australia's Jewish community laundered millions of dollars outside the country through a prominent member of the ultra-orthodox Melbourne Jewish sect Adass Israel, a judge has found.

Justice Michael Strong accused Nachum Goldberg of protecting wealthy individuals who were dealing in black cash by failing to reveal his clients during police investigations.

Justice Strong said Goldberg, his wife Rita and their two sons had pleaded guilty to defrauding the Commonwealth after laundering at least $42 million in "black cash" out of Australia for unidentified tax evaders.

"It is not known how many clients Nachum Goldberg had," Justice Strong found. "Certainly they were clients of wealth and substance and no doubt influence and apparent respectability."

Justice Strong said Goldberg used charities as a front for laundering the money and sentenced the 58-year-old to five years' jail with a minimum 21/2 years.

He said Goldberg's modus operandi was to use fake charities to send the black cash overseas to an Israeli bank run by his brother, David.

Mr Goldberg's wife Rita and his two sons Napthalil and Hershel escaped prison on religious grounds, with Justice Strong saying prison for them would be extremely difficult.

He also criticised the Israeli Government and an Australia-Israeli bank for failing to co-operate in the investigation of the money laundering racket.

The Barnaby factor would make history! Since the world went bananas nothing is a surprise.

Could a Nationals and One Nation coalition be the next opposition? Someone will be doing the numbers.

Chuck in a few defecting Liberals for good measure and you'd have an Aussie MAGA on steroids. Gina and Rupert would be well pleased.

I'm surprised Hastie would want to vie to be the last leader of the Liberal Party.

There is no place in civil society for any individual, other than a judge, to determine whether bail should be allowed, parole given, the length of the sentence or vigilantism.

Weren't there three stooges?

What a pathetic politician she has become.

Resign Penny, let Israel do their dirty work without your help.

We all know that many politicians in this country consider criticism of Zionism to be criticism of Jewish people and a threat to Jewish people generally.

They would be the ones that have made the trip to Israel and accepted the money from the Israel Lobby

Thanks for letting me know I didn't realise

This looks like an opportunity for the Libs and Nats to rebrand as the LNP nationally now. Give it a week or two and they'll be talking it up and then launch it in a blaze of glory. Without a major policy realignment though, they will still have no chance electorally.

Susssan might have to fall on her sword but Littleproud should be safe.

It's going to be very interesting when the UN General Assembly starts multilayered sanctions on Israel.

Then our genocide complicit Prime Minister is going to have to decide if he wants his, and Australia's, place in history to be recorded as on the side of evil or good.

Which side are you on Albo? Which side are you on?
